Perfect! I recommend everyone try it. The lake is super warm and feels great! They teach you before you get in the water and give you everything you need! Amazing and exhilarating. Not recommended for those who are afraid, you just have to try it :)

Terry was my instructor in a small group class. He was very good at explaining the different steps and made a difficult sport seem fun as a first time learner. Everything, from dry practice, to pacing, to getting the final photos was fantastic. The instructing team was even super nice and went to get us coupons for hamburgers after the lesson 🌟

The experience allowed us to freely unleash our creativity and draw our own coasters. The kiln factory has a strong historical atmosphere, a comfortable environment, and the instructors are very enthusiastic and the teaching process is careful. The drawing process is not only fun, but also makes people feel the craft of handcraft.

Buying tickets through Klook before entering is more cost-effective, and it doesn't matter if it's a weekday or holiday. Many kids play together inside, jumping happily. There are also basketball machines and a laser maze. They sell Taiwanese waffles (similar to a pancake) out front, which are quite delicious, and the shapes are unique. We bought all-day passes, went out to eat dinner at the mall, and then went back for another round of fun. The kids loved it.

It was my first time riding an electric scooter. The store provided great service and riding instructions. The electric scooter was easy to ride and use. The details and texture of the car were great. The headlight design made it safer when riding at night. Thank you for allowing me to travel around the Kaohsiung Pier-2 Art Center in a very comfortable way. I really need it in the summer!

Masseuse: Highly recommend technician #11. Also, there was a time booking error on your platform, and my voucher was redeemed by Klook's system before I even used it. Whether it was by phone or in person, the front desk staff at Foot SPA Dog's patience and service attitude were truly top-notch! And technician #11's skills and service attitude were also first-rate.
